Konf is a Java configuration system. You can use it to easily create your own config DSLs.
At times it is helpful to add some configuration logic to a config file. As long as you keep the logic to config small and only put in config logic. The config logic should not be complicated.
The config logic forms a DSL for your configuration. If you do not need this then use JSON or YAML for your config. We find it very useful for working in EC2, Jenkins, local dev boxes, Nomad, Heroku and Mesosphere.
Here is an example that figures out port numbers running in
Mesosphere.mycompany-config-utils.js example config javascript
var createLogger = Java.type("org.slf4j.LoggerFactory").getLogger;
var log = createLogger("config.log");
function mesosPortAt(index, defaultPort) {
var fromMesos = env("PORT" + index);
var portReturned = fromMesos ? parseInt(fromMesos) : defaultPort;
log.info("Mesos Port At " + index + " was " + portReturned +
" default was {}" + defaultPort);
return portReturned;
}
Then you can use this config "DSL" from your config files. The example
todo-service-development.js uses the config logic functions from the previous example, namely,mesosPortAt and createLogger (development deploy).todo-service-development.js
var config = {
platform: {
statsd: "udp://" + getDockerHost() + ":8125",
servicePort: mesosPortAt(0, 8080),
adminPort: mesosPortAt(1, 9090),
vertxOptions: {
clustered: false
},
discovery: {
providers: ["docker:http://" + getDockerHost() + ":2375"]
}
},
todoService: {
recordTodoTimeout: "30 seconds",
recordTodoListTimeout: "10 seconds",
circuitBreakerCheckInterval: '10s',
maxErrorsPerCircuitBreakerCheck: 10,
checkCassandraConnectionInterval: "10s",
cassandra: {
uri: "discovery:docker:///cassandra?containerPort=9042",
replicationFactor: 1
}
}
};
function getDockerHost() {
return isMacOS() && !env("DOCKER_HOST")
? "192.168.99.100"
: dockerHostOrDefault("localhost");
}
log.info("STAGING DEVELOPMENT");
log.info("impressions DEPLOYMENT_ENVIRONMENT {} ", env("DEPLOYMENT_ENVIRONMENT"));
log.info("impressions DOCKER_HOST {} ", env("DOCKER_HOST"));
log.info("impressions PORT_0 {} ", env("PORT0"));
log.info("impressions PORT_1 {} ", env("PORT1"));
Notice we added
getDockerHost to our dev config file. These config files would exist in your deployment jar files.
Your production version can use just your "standard" config functions as follows.
todo-service-production.js
var config = {
platform: {
statsd: "udp://statsd1.ops.prod.somecompany.net:8086",
servicePort: mesosPortAt(0, 8080),
adminPort: mesosPortAt(1, 9090),
vertxOptions: {
clustered: false
},
discovery: {
providers: ["dns://ns-660.aawsdns-13.net:53",
"dns://ns-1399.aawsdns-36.org:53",
"dns://ns-511.aawsdns-63.com:53"]
}
},
todoService: {
recordTodoTimeout: "30 seconds",
recordTodoListTimeout: "10 seconds",
circuitBreakerCheckInterval: '10s',
maxErrorsPerCircuitBreakerCheck: 10,
checkCassandraConnectionInterval: "10s",
cassandra: {
uri: "discovery:dns:A:///cassandra1.ds.prod.rbmhops.net?port=9042",
replicationFactor: 1
}
}
};
log.info("STAGING PRODUCTION");
log.info("impressions DEPLOYMENT_ENVIRONMENT {} ", env("DEPLOYMENT_ENVIRONMENT"));
log.info("impressions DOCKER_HOST {} ", env("DOCKER_HOST"));
log.info("impressions PORT_0 {} ", env("PORT0"));
log.info("impressions PORT_1 {} ", env("PORT1"));
This was your production and QA config are locked down, but your dev config is more flexible to accommodate different dev environments (Linux, MacOSX, and Windows).
To load your base config utils, create a Java utility jar that your apps depend on as follows.
package io.advantageous.platform.config;
import io.advantageous.config.Config;
import io.advantageous.config.ConfigLoader;
import org.slf4j.Logger;
import org.slf4j.LoggerFactory;
import java.util.concurrent.atomic.AtomicReference;
/**
* Convenient utility methods for handling env and config.
*
* @author Geoff Chandler
* @author Rick Hightower
*/
public final class ConfigUtils {
private static final String DEPLOYMENT_ENVIRONMENT;
private static final Logger logger = LoggerFactory.getLogger(ConfigUtils.class);
private static AtomicReference<Config> rootConfig = new AtomicReference<>();
static {
final String env = System.getenv("DEPLOYMENT_ENVIRONMENT");
DEPLOYMENT_ENVIRONMENT = env == null ? "development" : env.toLowerCase();
}
private ConfigUtils() {
throw new IllegalStateException("config utils is not to be instantiated.");
}
private static Config loadRootConfig() {
// Load the right config for the right environment.
final String resourceName = String.format("config-%s.js", DEPLOYMENT_ENVIRONMENT);
//Load your config utils
final Config load = ConfigLoader.load("mycompany-config-utils.js", resourceName);
if (!rootConfig.compareAndSet(null, load)) {
logger.warn("Config was set, and and you can't overwrite it. {}", resourceName);
}
return load;
}
public static Config getConfig(final String basePath) {
if (rootConfig.get() == null) {
loadRootConfig();
}
return rootConfig.get().getConfig(basePath);
}
}
That is it. Now you can write your own config DSLs. Happy coding!
Konf has the following built-in config functions.
var env = Java.type("java.lang.System").getenv;
var uri = Java.type("java.net.URI").create;
var system = Java.type("java.lang.System");
var duration = Java.type("java.time.Duration");
/** To store private vars. */
var konf = {
osNameInternal : system.getProperty("os.name").toLowerCase()
};
function seconds(unit) {
return duration.ofSeconds(unit);
}
function minutes(unit) {
return duration.ofMinutes(unit);
}
function hours(unit) {
return duration.ofHours(unit);
}
function days(unit) {
return duration.ofDays(unit);
}
function millis(unit) {
return duration.ofMillis(unit);
}
function milliseconds(unit) {
return duration.ofMillis(unit);
}
function sysProp(prop) {
return system.getProperty(prop);
}
function sysPropOrDefault(prop, defaultValue) {
return system.getProperty(prop, defaultValue.toString());
}
function isWindowsOS() {
return (konf.osNameInternal.indexOf("win") >= 0);
}
function isMacOS() {
return (konf.osNameInternal.indexOf("mac") >= 0);
}
function isUnix() {
var OS = konf.osNameInternal;
return (OS.indexOf("nix") >= 0 || OS.indexOf("nux") >= 0 || OS.indexOf("aix") > 0 );
}
function isLinux() {
return konf.osNameInternal.indexOf("linux") >= 0;
}
function isSolaris() {
return (konf.osNameInternal.indexOf("sunos") >= 0);
}
